Good Monday Morning ~~

and there is a large pot of tomato saucecooking on the stove. I still have to mix

roll & fry my meatballs, cant do them too soon or they

wont make the pot. :-)

My youngest son Tommy (26) is home from AZ

till after Thanksgiving and this was his request,

he eats like a bird so I'm always happy to make

something he truly likes. I also have plans to

bake a pie, chocolate cream.Mondays are always my busiest day of the

week, and my most productive.

Just coming off a restful, and most enjoyable week-endI'm ready to tackle the week.

This week-end we had a Beautiful Indian Summer Sundaywhich allowed me to take a walk in the Woods.I was able to collect more greens and more rosehips, thishas been a bumper year for the prickly red berries I love.

I was also able to scout out a few pine saplings that I may bring home soon,to finish off my Christmas decorating.

I have a few customers that have madeappointments to come into the "shop" this week,so I am trying to make sure every thing looks, and smells just right.

I don't have a lot of Christmas items, so I'm trying togive the feel of Christmas in hopes they take home an antique filled with greens or berries. Or maybe a good smelling candle or at the very least a "Good Feeling".Hope all is well and you are having aWonderful Monday smack dab in the middle of November.Sending Warm Blessings & Hugs from the Cabin.Connie xox
